Workers Comp in Blacktown — Where to Start
Injured at work? Here’s exactly what to do next.
Our doctors see workers from across Blacktown, from the distribution centres and manufacturing plants to the hospital and the retail parks. Whatever the job, the claim begins the same way, with an examination and a Certificate of Capacity that sets out the duties you can manage. An accepted claim covers what your treatment costs. Our physios treat the physical injuries and our psychologists see workers whose injury is psychological.

Workers Comp in Blacktown — How It Starts
See a WorkCover doctor
If you're a tradie with a back strain, a fall on-site, or a crush injury from machinery, the first move is a WorkCover-trained doctor.
Book a WorkCover doctor in BlacktownGet your Certificate of Capacity
Your doctor issues this on the first visit. It’s the legal document that proves you have a work injury and tells the insurer how much you can work and what treatment you need. No paperwork on your end — the doctor handles it.
Notify your employer
You’re legally required to tell your employer about a work injury — a text or email is enough. Once they get your Certificate of Capacity, they pass it to their workers comp insurer. The claim opens, and wages and treatment get covered from that point.
